Embedded Firmware Engineer

Psionic, Inc. is a startup focused on lidar sensors for autonomous systems. We value our customer relationships, our diverse and dynamic work environment, and our employees' career satisfaction. We offer a competitive salary and attractive benefits package.

We would like to add a motivated, fast-paced Firmware/Software Development leader with a solid background in designing, developing and testing code for space flight and remote sensing. We value a diverse, hands-on background with integrated photonic circuits to complement our on-site team in Hampton, VA.

Job Description

The primary purpose of this position is to serve as an Embedded Firmware Engineer to provide design and development support for our second generation lidar to support space and defense markets. The role will include lab demonstrations, field tests, prototypes, Engineering Development Units and the full range of space flight software (up to human-rated) to be supplied to potential customers for testing in their systems.

The work requires real time and offline algorithm adaption and coding of complex algorithms, low level driver development and implementation, software and firmware design, integrated opto-electronic control and housekeeping management, inter-module communication protocol, high speed electronics and software testing and debugging, high reliability techniques, signal processing, and in-situ, full system testing of instrumentation systems and navigation algorithms. Ability to collaborate with Systems Engineering and hardware builds to define function allocation among software and hardware resources is a must. These systems will be used for detecting, recording, measuring, or controlling physical conditions, phenomena, and environments encountered in defense and aerospace development programs.

The successful candidate will also mentor junior engineers related to the study, development, and test of hardware, data system components, and associated equipment. As such, our applicant will oversee the day-to-day development activities of small design and development teams in support of the project manager's work plan.
